We are seeking a skilled and experienced Solution Architect to join a dynamic payments environment.
This role involves working within a highly skilled team of payment solution architects, supporting various payment types across multiple jurisdictions and leveraging a wide range of technologies.
Under a hybrid working model, the resource will typically be required on-site in Dublin approximately once every two months for team meetings and occasionally for workshops (seldom).
For UK Faster Payments projects, there may be more frequent on-site requirements, which the project may fund if the resource is UK-based.
However, unless significantly far from the office, on-site trips will otherwise be self-funded.
Key Responsibilities: Shape and agree on solution architectures, ensuring alignment with architecture roadmaps, strategies, principles, and standards.
Produce the required solution architecture artefacts, such as Architecture Designs, inputs for the Architecture Review Board, and Security Reviews, and present them for approval.
Guide solution designs, collaborating with stakeholders at all levels to ensure that the identified solutions are understood, aligned with business needs, fit for purpose, and deliver value for investment.
Key Skills and Experience: Payments Expertise: Strong knowledge of cross-border and domestic payments, including SWIFT messages, ISO20022 standards, and payment lifecycles.
Technical Proficiency: Proven experience in solution architecture, with expertise in middleware technologies such as JBOSS, WebSphere, MQ, and Mulesoft, as well as database technologies like Oracle Exadata and MongoDB.
Solution Design: A demonstrated track record of solution design experience, ideally with expertise in enabling payment engines from the Finastra Suite of products (GPPSP, GPPHC, GPPMP, and GPP Fusion).
Risk Management: Strong understanding of risk management and the ability to address risk considerations in solution designs.
Communication Skills: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to make technical conversations relevant to business stakeholders and vice versa.
Working Model: This role follows a hybrid working model with on-site requirements in Dublin approximately every two months for team meetings, with occasional attendance at workshops as needed.
